CID Mini Skid Steer Auger Drive
The CID Mini Skid Steer Auger Drive is a hydraulic auger drive for mini skid steers and mini track loaders that runs off your machine's auxiliary hydraulics to dig post holes and planting holes without hand tools. It's built for landscapers, fence installers and contractors who need to drill in tight spaces. A direct-drive planetary gearbox delivers 3,020 ft-lbs of torque at 3,500 PSI on 5–13 GPM of flow, with no chains to break or come loose. It ships complete with the mounting plate, hoses and couplers, and you can add a matching 4″–36″ CID bit in the Bit option to get the drive and bit in one order.
Which CID Mini Auger Drive Do I Need?
- Hex Shaft (MINIADH): you run bits with a 2″ hex collar. 287 lbs. shipping weight.
- Round Shaft (MINIADR): you run bits with a 2-9/16″ round collar. 280 lbs. shipping weight.
Both drives need 5–13 GPM of auxiliary flow and use the standard mini skid steer quick attach. CID lists its mini skid steer attachments for Toro Dingo, Boxer, Ramrod, Ditch Witch, Thomas, and Bobcat MT50, MT52, MT55 and 463. Not sure what your machine has? Check your operator's manual, or call us with your make and model before you order.
Add a Matching Auger Bit
Pick a size in the Bit option and we'll ship the matching CID bit with your drive. All bits are 42″ tall, and the collar matches the shaft you choose (2″ hex or 2-9/16″ round). Choose No Bit if you already have one.
- 9″–12″: fence and deck posts.
- 18″–24″: trees and shrubs.
